Note : The respirator stipulated in this standard does not assume its use in such situation as exposure to radiation, fierce fire, ignition by a chemical substance or high risk of explosion. 2. Normative references The standard listed below shall form part of this standard when cited in this standard. When a cited standard is accompanied by the year of effectuation, the version established in that year alone shall form part of the provisions of this standard and the provisions of subsequent revisions and supplementary provisions shall not form part of this standard.

The detection of air leakage shall use one of the following methods. However, this requirement shall not apply when a different method approved by a test institution is used. 1) Air containing ammonia with a pressure of 1.0 kpa shall be fed inside the facepiece attached to the dummy head while the subject areas for the gas-tightness check shall be covered by a cloth immersed in an alcohol solution of phenolphthalein to observe any change of the colour of the cloth to red after 5 s. 2) Air or another gas with a pressure of 1.0 kpa shall be fed inside the facepiece attached to the dummy head while soap water or similar is applied to the subject areas for the gas-tightness check to observe any occurrence of soap water bubbles for 30 s. 3) The facepiece attached to the dummy head shall be submerged under water (in a manner where the front of the facepiece is looking upward with the depth from the water surface to the eyepiece of mm) and air or another gas with a pressure of 1.2 kpa shall be fed inside to observe any occurrence of air bubbles in the water for 30 s. b) In the case of a filter of the respirator of which the structure allows replacement of the said filter, gas pressure shall be applied inside the filter with all openings closed to check any occurrence of leakage. In this case, an externally attached filter can be tested with the said filter being detached from the facepiece. The detection of air leakage shall use one of the following methods. However, this requirement shall not apply when a different method approved by a test institution is used. 6

10 1) Air or another gas with a pressure of 1.5 kpa shall be fed inside the filter while soap water or similar shall be applied to the subject areas for the gas-tightness check to observe any occurrence of soap bubbles for 30 s. 2) The filter shall be submerged under water (in a manner where the outside air side of the filter is looking upward with the depth from the water surface to the uppermost part of the submerged filter of mm) and air or another gas with a pressure of 1.7 kpa shall be fed inside the filter to observe any occurrence of air bubbles in the water for 30 s. c) In the case of a respirator of which the structure does not allow replacement of the filter, the exhalation valve and inlet of the filter shall be closed and gas pressure shall be applied after removal of the inhalation valve to observe any occurrence of air leakage. The detection of air leakage shall use one of the following methods. However, this requirement shall not apply when a different method approved by a test institution is used. 1) Air or another gas with a pressure of 1.5 kpa shall be fed inside the respirator attached to a dummy head while soap water or similar shall be applied to the subject areas for the gas-tightness check to observe any occurrence of soap bubbles for 30 s. 2) The respirator attached to the dummy head shall be submerged under water (in a manner where the front of the facepiece is looking upward with the depth from the water surface to the uppermost part of the submerged respirator of mm) and air or another gas with a pressure of 1.7 kpa shall be fed inside to observe any occurrence of air bubbles in the water for 30 s Operative gas-tightness test on exhalation valve The exhalation valve shall be mounted to a gas-tightness tester to which an exhalation valve seat is attached and air shall be sucked at a flow rate of 1 L/min to check the state of inside pressure reduction due to the closure of the exhalation valve. This shall be followed by reducing of the inside pressure by 1.5 kpa below the outside pressure and left uncontrolled to measure the period required by the inside pressure to return to the normal pressure level. In this case, the inner volume of the gas-tightness tester shall be 50 ± 5 cm Breathing resistance test on respirator The respirator shall undergo the breathing resistance test in the following manner. a) Measuring of inhalation resistance and exhalation resistance The respirator shall be mounted to a dummy head or similar and the contact area between the facepiece and the dummy head or similar shall be sealed by paste or similar to prevent air leakage. Inhalation and exhalation shall then be conducted at a rate of 40 L/min to measure the 7

11 pressure difference between the inside and outside of the facepiece (in the case of a full facepiece with a nose cup, the pressure difference between inside the nose cup and outside the facepiece; the same shall apply hereinafter). b) Measuring of peak value of exhalation resistance The respirator shall be mounted to a dummy head or similar and the contact area between the facepiece and the dummy head or similar shall be sealed by paste or similar to prevent air leakage. A breathing simulator shall be attached to the said dummy head or similar. Reciprocal air flow operation shall then be conducted at (2.0 ± 0.1 L/time) (15 ± 1 times/min) and the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the facepiece shall be measured for a one min period from 30 after the commencement of the air flow operation by a precision differential pressure meter (95% class, including a recorder with a response time of 0.4 s or less). Finally, the mean value of the peak values during this one minute period shall be calculated. Fig. 3 Example of testing system to measure the peak value of exhalation resistance Flow resistance test on filter Using individual filters as specimens, air shall be fed from the filter s inlet at 40 L/min (in the case of the respirator with one filter) or 20 L/min (in the case of the respirator with two filters) between influent and effluent of the filter shall be measured Gas capacity test on filter Using the same number of filters (one filter or a pair of filters) to be attached to the facepiece as specimens, air containing the test gas of which the concentration is shown in Table 2 shall be fed depending on the purpose of use of the filter. The temperature and relative humidity of the mixture of test gas and air shall be 20 ± 2 C and 50 ± 5 % respectively and the flow rate shall be 30 L/min. The level of concentration of the test gas contained in air which has passed through the specimen shall be measured using a method capable of measuring the maximum allowable permeation in a stable manner and the period required for breakthrough shall be obtained. 8
